The Republic of Theascorossia is a massive, cultured nation, renowned for its state-planned economy, ban on automobiles, and complete absence of social welfare. The hard-nosed, cynical population of 1.397 billion Theascorossians are ruled by a mostly-benevolent dictator, who grants the populace the freedom to live their own lives but watches carefully for anyone to slip up.

The medium-sized government juggles the competing demands of Administration, Defense, and Law & Order. The average income tax rate is 30.2%, but much higher for the wealthy.

The Theascorossian economy, worth 74.9 trillion bitcoins a year, is driven entirely by a combination of government and state-owned industry, with private enterprise illegal. However, for those in the know, there is a slick, highly efficient black market in Beef-Based Agriculture, Woodchip Exports, Pizza Delivery, and Uranium Mining. The private sector mostly consists of enterprising ten-year-olds selling lemonade on the sidewalk, but the government is looking at stamping this out. Average income is 53,608 bitcoins, and distributed extremely evenly, with little difference between the richest and poorest citizens.

It is illegal to have the wrong clock time showing on your microwave oven, scenic tours are unheard of after most environmental laws were abolished, Leader's new office has a propensity to catch on fire, and you don't need a smoking gun to arrest someone for promoting guns. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to a well-funded police force. Theascorossia's national animal is the lion.

Theascorossia is ranked 176,922nd in the world and 7,156th in Osiris for Highest Foreign Aid Spending, scoring zero on the Clooney Contribution Index.
